Game minimizing itself for no reason.
Everything working smoothly on DX11 in fullscreen mode, when at the boss of the map the game starts alt tabbing itself.
Trying to keep calm i click on the program again (on the windows bar) and it reopens, but as soon as i enter any command, it alt tabs again. I repeated the action a few times in panic mode, but the game kept alt tabbing, until i heard my char crying. When i finally died (in HC of course.. ), the thing stopped and i could contemplate my dead body. I was just amazed, it felt like a bad joke. Anyways, i tried reproducing the thing by spamming my keyboard and mouse, along with alt keys and ctrl keys, etc.. but it just happened for no obvious reason. ___________________________ the worst part is that i was monitoring my graphic card temperature and the memory allocated to the game on another screen cause I previously lost 2 characters due to crash and freezes. this breach update is probably the most unstable version of the game, it's very frustrating to play and any pleasure you can find is taken away by the poor finition and the amazing number of bugs. And no i'm not trying to make a usefull point, i'm just complaining like a b... cause it's my 3rd death in a row that is out of my control. any other game (with much higher needs)is working perfectly fine on my computer. it's just PoE, game of the year edition. and yeah, the support is a forum... support of the year !

Typically this is due to another program attempting to take focus - perhaps because it has a notification it believes is urgent. A common example is an anti-virus program attempting to show you the results of a scan it performed. The fact that it stopped after a while does seem to support this hypothesis - notifications invariably last a few seconds, then go away.

thanks for your answer, although i was trying to contact the support precisely because the cause of the problem isn't obvious, like an anti-virus popping up.
My taskbar is on the other screen and any pop up is happening there. Also i would have seen it, since i was alt tabbed all the time, not to mention that those pop up do not alt tab me. I didn't want to make too long a post as my experience with most support is through private conversations but I should have mentionned it happened twice or thrice previously, tho i didn't die from it since i managed to close the client. It actually happened on a blade flurry character, first i would have a bug were the channeling gets stuck then when trying to unstuck it with other skills, the game would alt tab for a few seconds (even when trying to re-enter the game). but now i was playing SRS, no channeling skill. I'm using a mouse with numeric buttons on the side and am using them to play the game. Also the thing stopped at the moment of my death, i could hear the scream and in the same second i was fullscreened again. It felt more like a hard video bug or a stuck command, and yes i checked the keys of my keyboard and those of my mouse, instead of trying to close the game, wich is part of the reason i died. anyays it doesn't matter it's a bug report forum, not a solution finder forum. and... well it's a forum. |

This happened to me recently. Now the game has been crashing my computer and the only way out of it is restarting. I still hear the game music in the back, but my screen is blank.

This keeps happening to me every time my screen saver starts itself -.- I don't exactly know why , since in most other games the screen saver cannot start itself as long as a game in fullscreen is running. I've increased the timer for now , but I hope the devs can do something about that.
